Egg Bowl on Thanksgiving? Mississippi State Wants It to Happen

STARKVILLE — Mississippi State athletics director Scott Stricklin wants future Egg Bowls moved to Thanksgiving night on ESPN.
He shared his vision Thursday night on Twitter, again confirming what we reported in July concerning the school’s desire to move the game back to Thanksgiving night. Ole Miss and MSU met on Thanksgiving nights from 1998 to 2003 on ESPN, but that matchup was replaced by Texas-Texas A&M and now Texas-TCU.
